Got Your Flu Vaccine?

It's Flu season. Make sure you got your flu vaccine right now. You don't want to get sick especially this holiday season.. You can get it mostly everywhere....I'm going to get mine this Friday. To all of you out there that don't have a strong immunity to flu. Now it's right time to get it. According to CDC " Influenza can lead to hospitalization or even death. it says "during regular flu season about 90 percent of death occur to 65 years of age  and older." I'll include below the CDC link for your review.

McAfee vs. McAfee

Its 5:00 am in the morning, I’m still working on my term papers and my computer keeps me reminded about the security of my laptop. It says, that my computer is not fully protected from virus, and telling me to click the protection status in McAfee Security Center and fix the problem. By not updating my anti-virus soon, I knew I’m risking my computer.


 John McAfee the founder and owner of McAfee Security Center is on the headline of National and locals news. His been arrested in Guatemala for entering the country illegally. When the story unfolded; his hiding from the authority in Belize for almost three weeks. It’s about the murder of his neighbor. McAfee had a press conference in Guatemala and seeking asylum. He stated in the interview,"that he needs to disguised as a handicapped to avoid manhunt." He blamed that there’s a gang of thieves been sent to wrong house that killed his neighbor. The news reporter says,"MacAfee lives, evolved around drugs, sex, and guns." What a risky way to lived.
John McAfee heart problems delay deportation to Belize
The irony of this blog is; I’m risking the life of my laptop for not renewing my anti-virus software, while the inventor of this program is risking his life by living dangerously. I also learned from the news that John McAfee sold his company and liquidated his asset since 2000.

USO

This is the Organization I want you to meet. The United Service Organization or USO. This is a Private Non-Profit organization that caters to America’s Armed Forces and their families. Some people might think that this is a government agency, but it is not.

Naval Air Station Jacksonville
Our local USO here in Jacksonville has three strategic locations. The first one is located at the ground floor of Jacksonville International Airport, the second one is located at the Naval Station Mayport, and the third is at the Naval Air Station (NAS), Jacksonville. I volunteered at the NAS, Jacksonville. We do a lot of packing boxes to send to the troops deployed overseas. I answered phone calls, assist them in using the computers, copying and faxing documents. I do some clerical work too. Whatever needs to be done that day, I’ll do it. These are simple task and easy that everyone can do.
Volunteers are the USO greatest and most important asset. They always looking for volunteers. If you are interested these are the three USO centers: Mayport-(904) 246-3481, NAS Jacksonville-(904) 778-2821 or 7928, and JIA Welcome Center-(904) 741-6655 or you can visit their website at: www.jaxuso.org

Refill Sir?


Did you ever asked by an employee in any coffee house for refill? I was, and I enjoyed that kind of hospitality. It happened here at Starbucks Blanding avenue, Orange Park. While, I'm blogging for school. The shift manager asked me if I want a refill. I politely said no, because I'm already wired and it's late. The barista who served me earlier my coffee and coffee cake was so nice. Always smiling and courteous to all her customers. I feel welcomed and decided to stay longer. One of the best coffee and service I ever had this month. I recommend this coffee house to every one who might end up this side of town. Two thumbs up for the barista!!!  

Drinking coffee and blogging are made from heaven

Lot of fresh coffee you can take home and enjoy

The store is cleaned and employees busy 

Nice interior
I'm going to get one

Eddie Vedder is one of my favorite folk singer. His the singer and songwriter of Pearl Jam. His 2012 tour included Jacksonville. I was so lucky to watched him in person. Unfortunately, I can't take his photo because it's not allowed. The director said it's annoying....This picture were taken before the finale.
Intermission

Tree Lighting @ The Landing

I enjoyed my visit to downtown Jacksonville 2 weeks ago. The tree lighting ceremony at the Landing commenced at around 7:00 pm. Douglas Anderson of the Arts performed Christmas carols. Outstanding performance for this high school performers. The hosts were the husband and wife team of Fox 30 news. One of the spectator said that it's the 25th Annual Tree lighting ceremony here in Jacksonville.
